It commences a family’s search for a way to bid a dignified goodbye to their loved one.The biggest obstacle for mourners is finding a place to bury the dead in the Kathmandu Valley, a region in central Nepal that is home to the mountainous nation’s three largest cities and hundreds of smaller towns and villages.

Evangelism efforts carried a possible criminal sentence of three years in prison—and successful evangelism, six years—but Christians continued ...Continue reading...
